Pobtland, Sept. 13. 'fills morning the
oasoof Charles Ohio, one of Ben Holla
day's agents during the time ho led a
princely life in "Washington city, against
Jos. Holladay, executor of estate of
late Ben Holladay, -went to trial before
judge Shattuck and the court took it un
der advisement before noon. Ohle, asks
for judgment of $14,370 together with in
terest for services rendered in the ca
pacity of private secretary, and money
loaned to Ben Holladay during his life
time.
Since contractor O'Neil began work
at the Northern Pacific Terminal Co.'s
property ho has put in a strip nearly one
thousand feet in length and seventy -five
feet in -width. The addition of new
ground is being rapidly made.
It is thought JoflGHolloday, now at
Clatsop beach will resist judge Stearns'
bench warrant. The officer dispatched
for him is a determined man however,
and the chances are that he will bring
his man to Portland whether he wants to
come or not.
Mrs. M. A. Lennan, the female lawyer,
had a preliminary examination before
justice Tattle to-day to answer to the
charge of obtaining money under false
pretenses. She agreed to show two men
timber claims for which she received
pay; since which time she has done
nothing toward fulfiling her contract.
She was held to answer in the sum of
$100.
Judge P. A. Marquam said to-day ho
had given no lease of the new theatre as
yet bat intimated that Jno. P. Howe
would probably get it.
THE EPISCOrAIi CONVENTION.
To-day was the last of the Episcopal
primary convention. It assembled this
morning at 9:30 and was opened with
prayer by iiight lie v. u. wistar .atoms,
assisted by Rev. S. Leveridge Powell.
Litany was then said by Rev. Mr.
Land. Tho missionary committco
for the following year was elected and
the examining chaplains appointed by
the bishop. Tho rest of the time was
taken up in winding up tho affairs of
the convention which adjourned later in
tho afternoon. Several ministers will
leave for tbtfir homes to-morrow but tho
majority wflT remain in this city over
Sunday, on wuicn uay missionary ser
vice. will be held at Trinity church and
St. David's chapel, East rortlaiul.
the backs.
The attendance at tho fourth day's
races at City View park was very largo.
The weather was perfect and the track
fast. "While being exercised this morn
ing the running horso "Tom O'Hara" of
the Oregon stables, owned by R. E. By
bee, became frightened and bolted the
track. While plunging over broken
ground the horse fell, breaking his fore
leer below the shoulder and was shot.
'Tom O'Hara'' was entered in to-day's
three-quarter mile dash. The first race
on the programme was a tnrep-quarter
mile dash with eight starters. "Jon
Jon" and "Tom Daly" were first choice
with "Jubilee" well up in getting. After
an nonr ana a nan scoring tue norses
cot awav and ran over the course to hn-
ish to a false start. "Sleepy Dick" came
in first and after the judge deoided the
heat was offliis owner drew him. Tho
second time "Jubilee" was in the lead at
tho home stretch "J. M. R." and "Tom
Dalv" made a rash for him and came un
der the wire in a driving finish with not a
neck to spare between them. Tho judges
decided "J. M. R." won, "Jubilee" second,
"Tom Daly" third; time 1:1G4. Mntuals
paid eighty-eight collars.
In the second race "Blondie" won in
three straight heats.
EXTENDING OfEaATIONS.
Monteeal, Sept. 13. T. G. Shaugnessy,
assistant general manager or the uana
dian Pacific, has been appointed assist
ant president. He goes to England to
contract tor tnroe steamers, J,ww tons,
to steam eiehteen knots, for tho Pacihc
mail service to China and-Japan. The
vessels are to be of the same model and
desien as the North German Lloyds
steamer plan and will cost 1,000,000
apiece, to be delivered at Vancouver in
eighteen months. President Van Home

Washington, Sept. 13. Eventually it
is proposed by the war department to
reduce the 140 military posts to at least
half that number. "With Indian troubles
a thing of tho past, there will be no rea
son for scattering our small army all
over the country, in too opinion of
the military authorities the day is com
ing when it will bo the largo cities that
need protection, and not the prairies. It
is, therefore, considered much more ju
dicious, and economical as well, to have
our 25,000 regulars separated in as largo
detachments as possible, and stationed
at convenient railroad centers, from
which they can be dispatched to tho
scene of trouble as rapidly as it is now
possible for a small detachment to reach
the scene of an Indian outbreak.
CHINESE TBICKEBY.
New Yobk. Sept. 13. Inspector Dunn
of the customs service, saj's it is a fact
"that the great steamers from Unba
bring Chinese to.this port who are pro
vided with passports, and in some cases
they have tickets which tho3r have pur
chased to San Francisco. A separate
manuesc is maae ior mu uuuiese passen
gers, and that is why they do not appeal
on the regular list. "I know," said Mr.
Dunn, "of one batch of twenty-five in
tho month of August which were let in
beoause they all had passports repre
senting themselves as laborers in tran
sit." Tho best-informed Chinese here
admit the local population has increased
enormously in the past few months. It
is hardly necessary to look for more
eviaence now mat me umcima iueui
selves announce their intention of con
tinning to admit these new subjects of
Spain.

The transition from long, lingering
and painful sickness to robust health
marks anepoch in the life of the indi
vidual. Such a remarkable event is
treasured in the memory and the agency
whereby the good health has been at
tained is gratefully blessed. Hence it is
that so much is heard in praise of Elec
tric Bitters. So many leel they owe
their restoration to health to the use of
the Great Alterative and Tonic. If you
are troubled with any disease of the
Kidneys, Liver or Stomach, of long or
short standingyou -will surely find re
lief by use of Electric Bitters. Sold" at
